Have cmdline args follow standard convention

[thejta]

Right now long cmdline options such as -quiet, -quieterror, -coe, etc.. don't follow the normal convention of being started with double dash (--quieterror, etc..)

The code, help text, etc.. should be updated to fix this.

Stage 1: Put in support for the proper form and let both live together
Stage 2: Deprecate the old form and start throwing warning messages when used, but proceede
Stage 3: Completely remove the old form, causing cmdline fails when used.

Another possible item to look into is making sure all short args have a matching long arg.
